Up early - well, not that early, but a bit earlier than usual - due to the school tour of my youngest. So plenty of time to write a - long overdue - post. It is even dry for the moment, so I can take a few pictures outside!

Below a quilt "I made earlier". It was made from the goodies I received at a retreat some years back: A "Hankie Pack" - 15 x 10" squares, and a small strip roll - 10 strips of 2 1/2". I only added fabric for the back and the binding.

Flash Hankies

Quilting with black perle cotton

Back - not the right colour

Quilting seen on the back

The quilt ended up at 45" x 42" and is exactly the right size for on my small sofa in the living room - also small, I think of it more as a den - or to comfort my youngest on an "off" day.
